Shot him at 2 pm, waiting til morning.  Deer search says there's nobody available in my hunting area, Schoharie county.  I guess the guy who usually handles it is busy.  As long as we don't get a bunch of lake effect tonight shouldn't be that bad of a track, I marked where I left it.  He was blowing blood the whole trail, very easy to follow.  

 

Also in retrospect I'm sure I was bumping him more, lost all sanity.  I google earth pro'd the route, approx. 1600 yards.  IT FELT LIKE 2 MILES!

Yeah if liver lung that's a pretty long way to just run off...must have been bounced repeatedly.

Good luck out there...hope you find him in one piece

Last bow sit for me. I’m planning on hunting morning and evening with just a small break in between to take care of some stuff. This is my third year with a bow and have yet to harvest anything. I’d sure like to take one today.

Good plan took me 3 seasons...then the floodgates opened.

Great day to make it happen!

I had a lone deer walk by at 6.40. Not sure if it was a little buck or a lone doe,but a lone deer is always hard to judge,sizewise. Plus it was a few mins early,but it didnt present a shot for my compound anyway.

I would like the next one a tad closer please...oh,and on the ground!!!!

I’m pretty sure duck is open, pheasant as well as other game. Duck is half hour before sunrise. I hear shots all the time here 10, 20, 30 a day from Sept1 through the new year. If they were shooting deer there would be none left lol

Beautiful morning here on the hill in 6g got a couple of inches of snow from yesterday. I just passed on a decent 6 point which in the past I'd have taken, here on stateland in the northern tier that's a pretty good buck but this is my first day of Rut-Cation and I got plenty of meat in the freezer. Good luck to all those out.

i got lucky my first,but my third season(last) was tag soup. I feel pretty eager to get one this year....

I broke a 7 year archery harvest streak in 2016...threw my bow out of the tree 3 times. Felt like my dog died (he did the previous spring).

Got a new bow and arrows, back on track

They’re Amish.  The big bearded one is the wife but you should see what she’s got down there 

You aren't kidding! I sell some apples and peaches to some Amish. The little bit you can see between the ankle and shin looks a little scary..... Not that I'm looking of course!

      Hello everyone I’m currently looking at a house in deposit ny I’ve been deer hunting for many year mainly in Columbia and Greene county never been to Broome county. Before anything I was just curious how is the hunting there ? I know there aren’t any antlered restrictions in Broome but are there monsters out there or is it mainly just small spike? If anyone from that county or knows about deposit and broome county would get back to me i would appreciate it. Hope everyone hunting today catch a big one thanks.

      The procedure below to carry the bow is detailed below:
      You have to use a cotton towel or something similar. You have to wrap it around the bowstring. Doing so ensures that it will not cause an injury with the bowstring coming in contact with your body. It will not be that sharp either. Once you cover the bowstring with the towel, you have to wear it like a sling. So that it will not fall away from your body. The best way to cover the bowstring is to use a large enough towel. You can wrap it around twice as well. When making a sling out of the cotton towel, you have to ensure that you tighten it to get a snug fit. In that case, it will not slip away. Consequently, it will remain in place. When using this technique to carry a bow on your back, it is essential to practice before going in the wilderness. Only when you can move briskly and without noise using the scanning mechanism should you go ahead with it. To remove the bow, you have to hold it at the bottom. After that, you have to slip it over your head as well as arm. Doing so ensures that you can remove it quickly. When trying to focus on a prey, you need to remove the bow quickly. The technique for removal that we have highlighted above can certainly help you do so.

      Just want to relay an experience I had this weekend regarding hunting regulations and other hunters.
      I've had several  hunter's tell me last weekend(10/12/2020) that muzzleloader was open, it is not. I also had two other hunters last weekend confront me as to why my son was carrying around a rifle and hunting deer. I calmly explained the youth weekend and the rules around it. After that everything was cool and we continued our hunt.
      I know at the end of the day we're all trying to participate in a sport we love and maybe harvest some game. My thought is to just make sure you're up on your local hunting regulations. Not just so you are within the rules, but also so you can assert your right to be where you are, hunting the way you're hunting.
      I know when I have been operating outside of the regulations I have appreciated a person respectfully correcting my ignorance and I try to pay it forward by being informed and respectfully educating when required.
      Thanks for listening, off my SB...

      Hello,
      I am in the process of purchasing my first rifle to go hunting deer for the first time.  However, I have received contradicting information regarding the types of rifles that are legal.  Based on what I have read, it appears that I am able to use a bolt-action rifle with a pistol grip and a detachable magazine which holds 10 rounds.  However, I have been told that this is not the case. I can't seem to find where this is stated.  Can any one here provide me with some insight into this? I'd really appreciate it.
      Thanks in Advanced,
      Alfredo
